Get ready for a mesmerizing and interactive art installation that will transport you to a world where color collides with motion. Los Trompos features larger-than-life, three-dimensional spinning tops in a kaleidoscope of vibrant colors and intricate designs as traditionally woven by Mexican artisans.

Los Trompos (Spinning Tops) draws inspiration from a toy popular with children around the world since the dawn of time. These colorful, large-scale, and interactive installations engage visitors in meaningful ways to give new significance to the art of play. As you interact with each spinning top, you’ll become part of the art itself, creating a symphony of motion unique to each person who experiences it.

Great for all ages, this installation is sure to awaken your sense of wonder and leave you with a newfound appreciation for the beauty of the world around us. Los Trompos will be available to students, faculty, staff, and the public in the Student Success District on the Campus Mall at the University of Arizona main campus in Tucson, AZ.
